How this list is ranked

Video recording hardware: maximum video resolution (30%, required), 4k video frame rate (25%), optical image stabilisation on main camera (20%), 4k selfie video (15%), chip gpu, 3dmark wild life extreme (10%).

Specification-based; it does not measure stabilisation quality or audio.

Ranked phones are on sale in India and had their first India sale in 2026; the 2025 models have their own lists. Prices are the cheapest variant's current official price, or its launch price where no current price is confirmed. A phone qualifies for "under ₹X" when that price is ₹X or less. Scores use fixed, published scales (formula version 2.6), so a phone's score is the same on every list; on budget lists the budget score shows where it sits among phones at that price.
